What would be the consequences of inhibiting the carnitine shuttle which transports fatty acids into the mitochondria?
A: accumulation of fat droplets in liver and muscle.
B: Increase in blood glucose concentration.
C: Increase in fatty acid synthesis in the liver.
D: Low levels of long chain free fatty acids in the blood.

D: Low levels of long chain free fatty acids in the blood.
举一反三
- The synthesis of fatty acids USES carnitine to transport acetyl-CoA from the mitochondria to the cytoplasm.（）
- The main fatty acids that elevated blood cholesterol levels are：
- The metabolic changes in the body during starvation are A: hepatic gluconeogenesis increases B: free fatty acids in blood reduce C: the levels of ketone bodies in blood increase D: hepatic glycogen breakdown enhances
- The final products of digestion are ? A: fatty acids, starch, glucose B: protein, amino acids, glucose C: protein, fat, carbohydrate D: glucose, amino acids, fatty acids
- When fatty acids are readily available as fuels, their breakdown in liver mitochondria yields acetyl-CoA, a signal that further oxidation of glucose for fuel is not necessary.
